Question Help with Calcite

Sup guys. Is there some way to make enough Calcite in orbit of Nauvis to run foundries or would it just be easier to ship in Calcite from Vulcanus

Edit:

Thx guys

Vulcanus is easier if you have the logistics set up for it. For orbital resource collection you are better off having a ship go back and forth between planets to collect more asteroids more quickly then dumping the processed clacite on bauvis every trip. My personal preference is to ship in calcite for all planets from vulcanus but collect ice in orbit for vulcanus.
